High Carbon Abrasive

High carbon abrasives are the abrasive of choice for most of the blasting industry due to the number of benefits that they carry.

Benefits

High energy transmission- Due to the high carbon, the grit is very hard. When blasting the grit does not deform on impact meaning the the full force of blasting is onto the work-piece.

Higher coverage- Other low carbon grits are produced at a larger size to combat break-down, however with a larger shot the coverage is much lower and inefficient. The smaller high carbon grit is able to stay at a small size and maintain its shape to give the best coverage possible.

Finishes- Due to the hardness of the high carbon grit, there are a number finishes that low carbon grits cannot achieve.
